New year is coming and it is time to reflect on past year and make some financial new year resolutions. We always make lot of resolutions but never go past few months.

Sometimes it becomes necessary to take charge of your finances and money to secure your future. Let us plan this year and take some steps to reduce debt, increase savings and create an investment portfolio.

1. Review your last year for financial choices you made

To move further, it is really important to see what we did in our past. Same is with our personal finance. Analyse your past year and try to figure out what you did wrong in your last year and where you can improve in present year.

6. Automate your savings

This one is my favourite because when you automate your savings, you don’t have to worry about saving some money in your saving account. Your money will automatically be saved. When you have money in your easy to access account, you may be tempted to spend that money.

It is better automate your savings and from there you can think of investing that money.

7. Start an emergency fund

This should be the most important part of your financial security. Make an emergency fund which will cover at-least 3 months of your income. This will give you a cushion to your finances. When you have some money in your emergency fund, you will become more peaceful and calm.

8. Plan no spend days/month/ week

Some of the spending like mortgage and bills are necessary. But you can try to reduce your spending on those things. Plan no spend months, or weeks whatever is easy  for you. Though it is not easy to curb that craving of going to shopping, give it a try.

9. Take care of your health

Taking care of your health will save you in the long run. If you take care of your health now, you will reduce your sick days and reduce trips to doctors and medicines. This will save you money as well a healthy person feels happy.

It is said that a healthy mind resides in a healthy body.  And a healthy mind can make better decisions for a better life. So take care of your health and wealth will come to you.

10. Read a personal finance book

It is time to read god books on personal finance because no one teaches us how to manage personal money. Make this one of your financial new year resolutions to teach yourself personal finance.

11. Improve credit score

Improving your credit card score will help you in the long run. Having credit cards is necessary and they are  not bad if you use them wisely. Having good credit health helps you in having better deals on loans and credit card interest rates.

Better credit score also helps you in having better deals on car insurance, easy approval of house rentals loan approvals.

12. Reduce credit card use

If you feel like you are not using your credit cards wisely, it is better to stop using them. Having bad credit decreases your credit score and makes your mind stressful. Having credit cards and using them optimally is a good idea but if you are stressing about the accumulating debt, it is best to avoid that.

Stop using credit cards and stay calm.

13. Increase your retirement contribution

Increase your retirement contribution because the payments which you make for your retirement fund are non taxable. It is a good idea to save money when you are in your prime earning age. Remember, you will need same amount of money for our life even after retirement.

14. Cancel unused subscriptions

There is no use of having any unused subscriptions. Cancel them or don’t renew them in new year. All the magazines and apps which you don’t need but spend money on will always take lot of money out of your pocket.Write all the subscriptions you have on paper and cancel which you don’t want.

Transfer that amount of money in to a high yielding account. Always save the money immediately to your account other wise you will be tempted to spend that money on something else. Remember, you cancelled those subscriptions to save money. Go for it.
